This paper proposes a novel damping model with negative stiffness known as the half‐cycle
negative‐stiffness damping model. Analysis of a single degree of freedom (SDOF) system …

Background During an earthquake, an enormous amount of elastic strain energy is released
which can be measured by the intensity of shaking in terms of PGA (Peak Ground …

This paper systematically investigates the dynamic behavior of stay cables with passive
negative stiffness dampers (NSD) installed close to the cable end. A passive NSD is …

When earthquakes occur, they release a considerable amount of elastic strain energy, which
is measured by peak ground acceleration (PGA). To reduce the impact of this energy …

The effect of semi‐active pseudo‐negative stiffness dampers (SAPNSDs) on the seismic
response mitigation in the reinforced concrete (RC) elevated liquid storage tanks is …

This paper introduces a control method utilizing an active nonlinear negative stiffness device
(ANNSD) to mitigate excessive displacement of isolation layers in base-isolated structures …

In this paper, we describe the design and manufacturing of a viscous inertial mass‐damper
(VIMD) prototype. The damper parameters, the inertial mass, and the viscous damping …

In recent years, the concept of negative stiffness mechanism (NSM) has become a
prominent research area and cherished a noteworthy amount of observations in the design …

In view of the grave socioeconomic consequences of earthquake damage to bridge
structures, along with their critical role in modern and older road and rail networks, this …

A filter‐based pseudo‐negative‐stiffness (FPNS) control is proposed for seismic control of
base‐isolated structures. The control algorithm is designed to produce a negative stiffness …
